Hey just FYI, this kind of behavior is super annoying.

Zensical has been a solid replacement for us so far. In general everything "just works" out of the box and is way quicker to build/reload. It is still in fairly early stages, but is actively being worked on https://zensical.org/spark/proposals/zap-005-navigation-auth...

I hope they are able to monetize in a way the keeps the core project open while making it a sustainable venture going forward.

1. I'm pretty sure setting "Maximum Tabs" does what you want, but not positive.

2. Uncheck "Hide .gitignore" setting and it won't do this.

3. Agreed

4. This is configured in the "Restore on Startup" setting (I think you want "Last Session")

This might have been bad timing. Copilot API broke things last weekend with caused a lot of tool calls in various agent harnesses to start failing like the edit tool.

Do you realize Claude and Codex are different products by different companies?

Did you even look in that repo?

How exactly does it violate the Developer's Certificate of Origin clause?

Why do you think there is a lot of training data? Could it be because it's stable and virtually unchanged for decades? Hmmm.

It's like they are trying to do the opposite of the Unix philosophy. Do many things very poorly.

They dont care. Their sales reps absolutely know that if you are using Microsoft products it is because you are locked in so deeply that escape is nearly impossible.

I like CUE a lot. We use it pretty heavily for schema enforcement of CRDs. That being said, it is pretty complex and learning to use it was anything but straight forward.

For more basic configs, I would potentially look into KCL https://www.kcl-lang.io/

It has a much simpler usage overall especially if you are only really trying to enforce some config rules.

The other alternative is to just use whatever language you are writing your software in and build a basic validator

Lets put it this way, no engineer is choosing to use bitbucket. You use it because some SVP made the mistake of choosing atlassian software a decade ago and refuses to change.

New comment by athorax in "Uv is the best thing to happen to the Python ecosystem in a decade"

athorax — Wed, 29 Oct 2025 19:14:31 +0000

For me the biggest value of uv was replacing pyenv for managing multiple versions of python. So uv replaced pyenv+pyenv-virtualenv+pip

I am confused on this as well, they list polyglot teams[0] as their top use case and consider not needing schema files a feature

I think the big difference is that these aren't AI generated bug reports. They are bugs found with the assistance of AI tools that were then properly vetted and reported in a responsible way by a real person.

Thats a bit uncalled for. This is a game made by someone shaped by their perspective on the world. It can be appreciated as such without applying your own additional intent.
